Section 3

This is my commuting project at the moment. It still just fits in my handbag. I'm using the same Blue Sky Alpacca & Silk in Sapphire as my first version. The gauge (not that I've actually measured it) is quite a bit smaller than the pattern so I added about 4 extra repeats in section 2 to make it wider. I'm not yet bored of the yarn or pattern despite the repetition.

I'm purling between the two ktb stitches to avoid using stitch markers thanks to the tip from P. I was doing a knit on the purl row until Lucy pointed out I could do a purl on the knit row which means I'm now sailing through the purl rows and don't have to think about anything on the bus to work at all if I time it right.
